When Men Are Young ...

... they're mildly, well, obsessed with sex. Why is that? Men In their twenties are interested in things they can touch and feel. Bodies are something to derive pleasure from. As men age, though their testosterone production - along with their sex drive - can decrease, and many begin to notice a woman's brain before her bra size.

So, what exactly is going on in a man's mind as he makes the journey from his twenties to his forties? To get the scoop, 98 men were asked eight intimate questions to see what a difference a decade (or two) makes - in a guy's brain and his bed.

in their 30s ...

"they're powerful, they truly wear the pants in the universe, but they're super picky. Maybe that's why they're still single and always complaining about it"

"they're sexually peaking, politically aware, relatively secure ... but also conflicted about career and childrearing"

"best, they're confident and stable. Worst, there aren't enough of the good ones left"

in their 40s ...

in their 30s ...

What If We Didn't Have To Sleep?

There Would Be No Need For Starbucks

The only people drinking coffee would be those who actually like the taste. So there would be a Starbucks on  every other street corner instead of every corner.

You Couldn't Say, "We Slept Together."

You'd have to be more blunt and say, "We had sex." Also, men wouldn't fall asleep after sex. They would either stay up and chitchat with you all night or they'd just say, "I'm going back to my house now." There wouldn't be any middle ground that would leave you guessing!

The Imaginary Sheep Population

... would wander into absolute chaos due to a lack of being counted. (LOL)

You'd Never Have To Hear

... anyone describe their dreams.

You Would Not Have To Listen To

... those perfect moms and dads who always say, "Oh! We have the best baby! Our little Skyler sleeps through the whole night!" Now new parents would look even more worn out than they already do, as they would have to be dealing with baby 24/7.

There Would Be No Cow-tipping

The "Mystery Killer"

Your car is more than just transportation. It is your pride and joy. You wash it, you wax it... you do everything you can think of or that your owner's manual tells you to do to be safe. With all this care you just might be missing the deadliest road hazard of all... your automobile air conditioning system!

Sadly, all air conditioning systems get contaminated and are never properly cleaned. Living organisms such as fungi and bacteria grow in your car's air conditioning system. When you get in the car with wet feet you put moisture in the carpeting that provides a breeding ground for contamination. As your car sits all day in the tropical heat these micro-organisms grow and multiply!!

Then, you get in the car, turn on your air conditioning and direct the cool air directly toward you. If you have a chemical air freshener in your car your air conditioner becomes a 'toxic blender' bathing you in harmful chemical toxins as well as fungi and bacteria.

The most common fungal in Malaysia is called Cladosporium. It is microscopic but DEADLY. In the US alone it is responsible for approximately 5000 deaths a year. It is found in locations as high as Genting Highlands and right down in the middle of the city in buildings straddling the Federal Highway. It is responsible for respiratory problems ranging from a runny nose to fungal infected lungs. It does not discriminate by age or gender. Symptoms are usually misdiagnosed and so it is called The Mystery Killer.

When servicing your car, don't forget to get your air conditioning checked & cleaned.

Use this product inside your car for healthier air to breathe.

There is no short cut to losing weight. You have to do it slowly, patiently, gracefully & realistically. The most important thing is self discipline. Discipline comes through self-control. Before you can control conditions, you must first control yourself. I'm not saying you shouldn't eat, specially food that you love. You can still enjoy your food, stay fit and maintain a great figure at the same time.

These tips don't just apply for mothers, you who are still single & men can also benefit from some of the tips;

Plastic Surgery: The Facts

BOTOX

The toxin Botulism is injected into the face, paralysing the muscles and preventing lines from developing. It can last up to five months, but for the effects to last beyond that it's necessary to have further injections. Botox can also result in droopy eyelids and short-term flu-like symptoms.

BREAST AUGMENTATION

If you are thinking of having an augmentation take into consideration that what suits you at 25 (ie bigger breasts) won't necessarily suit you ten years on. Also, think about your body's natural proportions. If you have a small frame, large implants will not only look out of place but could stretch and permanently scar the skin around your breasts.

LIPOSUCTION

Elasticity in the skin is the key to a good result from liposuction. However, smoking and excessive sun damage can both affect your elasticity, causing a lumpy or rippling effect. There is also the chance of scarring.

CHEMICAL PEELS

This procedure is for the treatment of fine lines. Peels involve a chemical liquid being applied to the face to dissolve superficial layers of the skin. It can cause discolouration and in severe cases, burns.

The Real Reasons You're So Tired

IF YOU ARE ... feeling tired when you're active, but better as soon as you rest.

It could be, lack of fitness. Energy levels increase as you take regular exercise.

But if you're also ... looking paler, experiencing bouts of breathlessness when you're not particularly active, feeling light-headed or you've recently become pregnant, you could be anaemic. You can become iron deficient due to heavy periods or not eating a sufficient diet of dark, leafy greens and/or red meat.

It's time to see your GP if ... you also have dry skin, experience sensitivity to the cold (even when it's warm) and you've put on more than a stone over six months without altering your lifestyle or diet, as you could have an underactive thyroid. It's quite common, especially if it runs in your family.

IF YOU ARE ... feeling tired when you're rested, but better when you're active.

It could be, you need to be more active. This doesn't have to involve going to the gym, it could be getting off the bus a few stops earlier or using the stairs instead of the lift.

But if you're also ... experiencing weight loss or gain, having trouble sleeping and inexplicably low moods that you can't shake off, you may be struggling with a mild to moderate form of depression. Everyone suffers a degree of depression at some point in their life. Exercise can be just as effective as antidepressants and most mild cases resolve themselves.

It's time to see your GP if ... you've experienced panic attacks, severe anxiety or intrusive, unpleasant thoughts.

IF YOU ARE ... feeling tired, thirsty and faint the day after you've been active.

It could be, you're dehydrated. We need water to run the body's essential systems. If you don't drink enough water or drink too much tea, coffee or alcohol you might get headaches, nausea and tiredness.

But if you're also ... sneezing a lot, have a runny nose and watery eyes, you could have a fever. It can develop at any age, and is more likely if you have a family history of hay fever, eczema or asthma.

It's time to see your GP if ... you have achy muscles and tiredness a long time after an illness (such as glandular fever), as a viral infection can trigger fatigue syndrome. One in 200 women develop it. Your GP can only offer symptom relief. So work through it with regular rest, healthy eating and moderate activity, such as walking.

Burning Desire

One of the principles of success is DESIRE: knowing what one wants.

You have been disappointed, you have undergone defeat during the depression, you have felt the great heart within you crushed until it bled. Take courage for these experiences have tempered the spiritual mental of which you made- they are assets of incomparable value.

A BURNING DESIRE to be, and to do is the starting point from which the dreamer must take off. Dreams are not born of indifference, laziness or lack of ambition. If the thing you wish to do is right, and you believe it, go ahead and do it. Put your dreams across, and never mind what 'they' say if you meet with temporary defeat, for 'they' perhaps, do not know that EVERY FAILURE BRINGS WITH IT THE SEED OF AN EQUIVALENT SUCCESS.

One of the main weaknesses of mankind is the average man's familiarity with the word 'impossible'. He knows all the rules which will NOT work. He knows all the things which CANNOT be done.

Another weakness found in altogether too many people, is the habit of measuring everything, and everyone, by their own impressions and beliefs. Some who will read this, will believe that no one can Think And Grow Rich. They cannot think in terms of riches, because their thought habits have been steeped in poverty, want, misery, failure and defeat.

Before we can accumulate riches in great abundance, we must magnetize our minds with intense DESIRE for riches, that we much become money conscious until the DESIRE for money drives us to create definite plans for acquiring it.

Every person who wins in any undertaking must be willing to burn his ships and cut all sources of retreat. Only by so doing can one be sure of maintaining that state of mind known as a BURNING DESIRE TO WIN, essential to success.

Every human being who reaches the age of understanding of the purpose of money, wishes for it. Wishing will not bring riches, but desiring riches with a state of mind that becomes an obsession, then planning definite ways and means to acquire riches, and backing those plans with persistence which does not recognize failure, will bring riches.

One must realize that all who have accumulated great fortunes, first did a certain amount of dreaming, hoping, wishing, DESIRING, and PLANNING before they acquired money. You may as well know that you can never have riches in great quantities, unless you can work yourself into a white heat of DESIRE for money, and actually BELIEVE you will possess it. You might as well know, also that every great leader, from the dawn of civilization down to the present, was a dreamer.

KNOWLEDGE will not attract money, unless it is organized and intelligently directed, through practical PLANS OF ACTION, to the DEFINITE END of accumulation of money. Lack of understanding of this fact has been the source of confusion to millions of people who falsely believe that 'knowledge is power'. It is nothing of the sort! Knowledge is only potential power. It becomes power only when, and if, it is organized into definite plans of action, and directed to a definite end.

If you do not see great riches in your IMAGINATION, you will never see them in you bank balance, as RICHES begin in the form of THOUGHT.

WE ARE THE MASTERS OF OUR FATE, THE CAPTAINS OF OUR SOULS, BECAUSE WE HAVE THE POWER TO CONTROL OUR THOUGHTS.

EVERY FAILURE BRINGS WITH IT THE SEED OF AN EQUIVALENT SUCCESS.
